Workhorse W-15 range-extended electric pickup truck revealed (video)

Workhorse may have the ultimate proposal for commercial fleets with the reveal of its W-15 pickup truck, the first range-extended electric pickup truck to be built from the ground up with fleets in mind.

While Tesla says it is developing an all-electric pickup, which will supposedly be revealed in two years, the W-15 has now been introduced with 80 miles of all-electric range and a range extender to boot.

That range comes from a 60-kilowatt-hour battery pack using thousands of Panasonic 18650 lithium-ion commodity cells, mounted underneath the body and doubling as the truck's frame.
